When President Trump announced Thursday afternoon that he’d be pulling the United States out of the ParisAgreement, he did add that he’d be opento renegotiating the terms as long as American interests were protected.
Considering the future of the very planet is at stake, after all was said and done Thursday, it turned out the United States didn’t need the climate accord, and the rest of the world didn’t need the United States to participate. The United Nations made it clear that no single party, certainly not America, could force renegotiation of the historic treaty that isn’t a treaty at all as far as the U.S. is concerned.
#ParisAgreement, a historic treaty signed by 194 & ratified by 147 counties, cannot be renegotiated based on the request of a single Party. https://t.co/9vmbmzriJL— United Nations (@UN) June 2, 2017
The United States was in the Paris Agreement in name only as the treaty was never ratified— Simeon Standfast (@AdamJamesLocke) June 2, 2017
Problem is, it was not ratified by US Senate as a treaty entered into by US is supposed to be.— Reality Check (@Shoelace68S) June 2, 2017
Plenty of American citizens apologized to the United Nationson behalf of the country, but these are not those citizens.
UN has no say in our nation's decisions. We can defund any project that isn't good for our nation. Defund UN too.— Ann (@ann27610444) June 2, 2017
NOT by a single party, but by an AMAZING COUNTRY who's sick & tired of your/not our global agenda!— LTJ (@lijones314) June 2, 2017
